Holder and Hope lead as Windies march in Super 8s of World Cup

Jason Holder led with the ball and Shai Hope with the bat as West Indies recorded a superb third successive win in Group C. They thumped Nepal by nine wickets and qualified for the Super 8 stage of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.

The Windies Indies had already triumphed over Scotland and England with ease to take command of the group and added two more points when they made light work of the Nepalese on Sunday at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

Fast bowler Holder grabbed 4-27 and restricted Nepal to 133-8 off their 20 overs.
